LOWELL -- The UMass Lowell Athletic Department is proud to announce that Stanley Cup winner and Boston Bruin fan favorite Milan Lucic will be at the Tsongas Center on Friday as the River Hawks take on the New Hampshire Wildcats in Hockey East action.

The event is sponsored by NMTW Community Credit Union.

Lucic, a bruising power forward, captured the Stanley Cup with the Bruins in 2011. The 24-year old winger will participate in a ceremonial puck drop before the game and will be available for autographs on the concourse throughout the night.

The River Hawks (2-4-1, 1-3-1 HE) are looking to get back on track against fifth-ranked New Hampshire on home ice. UMass Lowell took the season series last year on the strength of the December weekend sweep.

Tickets for all remaining River Hawk home games are available through the Tsongas Center Box Office, www.TsongasCenter.com or by calling 866-722-8780.
